Military Wives
With their partners away serving in Afghanistan, a group of women from different backgrounds decide to form the very first military wives choir. On doing so, they quickly find themselves at the centre of a media sensation and global movement.
FIVE FACTS:
1. Military Wives is inspired by the real-life global phenomenon of military wives choirs.
2. It is a British comedy-drama film directed by Peter Cattaneo.
3. Members of the cast include Kristin Scott Thomas, Sharon Horgan, Jason Flemyng, Greg Wise and Emma Lowndes.
4. Most of the film’s indoor scenes, including the coffee morning and song rehearsals, were filmed in the English town of Kingston upon Thames.
5. Although the movie did appear in U.K. cinemas from early March, the COVID-19 pandemic prevented a similar theatrical release in the U.S., meaning it was instead released digitally in May.
